ArcelorMittal (NYSE:MT) has reported its third quarter results for 2022. Highlights include a net income of $1 billion for the quarter – down from $3.9 billion in the previous quarter, which was influenced “by a negative price-cost effect, energy costs headwinds and a 5.6% sequential decrease in steel shipments.” The company’s CEO, Aditya Mittal, said:

 

“The strong market conditions enjoyed for much of the past two years deteriorated in the third quarter as seasonally lower shipments, a reduction in exceptional price levels, destocking and higher energy costs combined to put profits under pressure. The business responded quickly to the changing environment, cutting higher cost capacity to manage addressable demand and reduce fixed costs, and reducing European gas consumption by 30%.”

 

Newcrest Mining Limited (TSX:NCM) has announced that it is proceeding with the West Dome Stage 8 cutback at its Telfer operation, with the Newcrest Board having approved a total investment of $150 million USD inclusive of mine operating costs and $51 million of capitalised production stripping. The cutback, according to the press release, “underpins continuity of operations at Telfer, with the mine now expected to extend operations into early FY25.” The company’s Managing Director and CEO, Sandeep Biswas, said:

 

"We are delighted to further extend the life of our Telfer operation, highlighting our ability to maximise the full potential of our assets through our strong technical expertise. Telfer is strategically positioned in the highly prospective Paterson Province and we are continuing to progress several potential options to expand the resource base in the open pits and underground to unlock additional value.”

 

Cameco Corporation (NYSE:CCJ) has reported that the first pounds of uranium ore from the McArthur River mine have now been milled and packaged at the Key Lake mill following their transition back into normal operations. Production had been paused for four years since January 2018 due to “persistent weakness in the global uranium market.” Cameco President and CEO Tim Gitzel said:

 

"McArthur River and Key Lake are among the best and most prolific uranium assets on the planet, and after building homes for these pounds in our long-term contract portfolio, we are delighted to have them back in production. Market conditions have continued to strengthen since we announced their planned restart, with growing geopolitical uncertainty adding to energy security concerns worldwide, and the ongoing global emphasis on decarbonization and electrification only gaining momentum."

 

Coeur Mining, Inc. (NYSE:CDE) has reported its third quarter 2022 financial results. Highlights include a revenue of $183 million, and gold and silver production totalling 83,438 ounces and 2.4 million ounces, respectively. Mitchell J. Krebs, the company’s President and CEO, said:

 

"Coeur experienced another steady operational quarter, and we are on-track to deliver a strong fourth quarter from each of our four operations. While financial results were negatively impacted by lower average realized prices, lower grades at Palmarejo, and ongoing inflationary pressures, we are well-positioned to achieve our full-year 2022 production and cost guidance thanks to a tremendous effort and effective cost management by our site operating teams.”

#GreenMetals #Stock in the News - Defense Metals (TSX-V: DEFN.V) (OTCQB: DFMTF) Reports Drills Results - 113 metres of 2.50% Total Rare Earth Oxide at Wicheeda; @defensemetals

#GreenMetals #Stock in the News - Defense Metals (TSX-V: DEFN.V) (OTCQB: DFMTF) Reports Drills Results - 113 metres of 2.50% Total Rare Earth Oxide at Wicheeda; @defensemetals

 

Vancouver, British Columbia – October 27, 2022: Investorideas.com Newswire, -Mining/Metals/ Green Energy Stock news-  Defense Metals Corp. (“Defense Metals” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:DEFN / OTCQB:DFMTF/ 35D: FSE) is pleased to announce high-grade Rare Earth Element (“REE”) assay results from one additional core hole, totalling 383 metres (m), collared within the northern area of Defense Metals’ 100% owned Wicheeda REE Deposit.

 

Read this news, featuring DEFN in full and see images and table at https://www.investorideas.com/news/2022/mining/10271DEFN-Rare-Earth-Oxide-Wicheeda.asp

 

Infill drill hole WI22-70 (-55o dip / 234o azimuth) was drilled southwest within the northern area of the deposit intersected a broad zone of mineralized dolomite carbonatite averaging 2.50% total rare earth oxide (“TREO”) over 113 metres (m)[1] (Figure 1).

 

The Company is also pleased to report the completion of the Wicheeda REE Deposit resource delineation and pit geotechnical diamond drilling campaign for the 2022 exploration season. This year a total of 5,500 metres of diamond drilling was completed in 18 holes. The 2022 drilling included completion of five (5) pit slope geotechnical and hydrogeologic holes totalling 1,150 metres, which were designed in part to support a Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) expected to commence Q4 2022.

 

Kristopher Raffle, P.Geo. and Director and QP of Defense Metals stated: “The 2022 Wicheeda drilling continues to meet or exceed expectations, yielding broad zones of mineralized dolomite-carbonatite that in the case of WI22-70 announced today serves to support, and refine confidence in, our PEA mineralized volumes.”

 

About the Wicheeda REE Property

The 100% owned 4,244-hectare Wicheeda REE Property, located approximately 80 km northeast of the city of Prince George, British Columbia, is readily accessible by all-weather gravel roads and is near infrastructure, including power transmission lines, the CN railway, and major highways.

 

The Wicheeda REE Project yielded a robust 2021 preliminary economic assessment technical report (PEA) that demonstrated an after-tax net present value (NPV@8%) of $517 million, and 18% IRR[2]. A unique advantage of the Wicheeda REE Project is the production of a saleable high-grade flotation-concentrate. The PEA contemplates a 1.8 Mtpa (million tonnes per year) mill throughput open pit mining operation with 1.75:1 (waste:mill feed) strip ratio over a 19 year mine (project) life producing and average of 25,423 tonnes REO annually. A Phase 1 initial pit strip ratio of 0.63:1 (waste:mill feed) would yield rapid access to higher grade surface mineralization in year 1 and payback of $440 million initial capital within 5 years.

 

Methodology and QA/QC

The analytical work reported on herein was performed by ALS Canada Ltd. (ALS) at Langley (sample preparation) and Vancouver (ICP-MS fusion), B.C. ALS is an ISO-IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 accredited geoanalytical laboratory and is independent of the Defense Metals and the QP. Drill core samples were subject to crushing at a minimum of 70% passing 2 mm, followed by pulverizing of a 250-gram split to 85% passing 75 microns. A 0.1-gram sample pulp was then subject to multi-element ICP-MS analysis via lithium-borate fusion to determine individual REE content (ME-MS81h). Defense Metals follows industry standard procedures for the work carried out on the Wicheeda Project, with a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program. Blank, duplicate, and standard samples were inserted into the sample sequence sent to the laboratory for analysis. Defense Metals detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data.

The scientific and technical information contained in this news release as it relates to the Wicheeda REE Project has been reviewed and approved by Kristopher J. Raffle, P.Geo. (BC) Principal and Consultant of APEX Geoscience Ltd. of Edmonton, AB, a director of Defense Metals and a “Qualified Person” as defined in NI 43-101. Mr. Raffle verified the data disclosed which includes a review of the sampling, analytical and test data underlying the information and opinions contained therein.
